Rene - I know I have often made things more difficult for myself during this build.
BUT…
I really have tried lots of variations on this…
Blocks under the chassis:
Blocks under the wheels:
Blocks at an angle:
Axles stands under the chassis & blocks supporting the bonnet:
Axle stands & blocks:
But every time I try to get the car level, gravity wins and I lose.
( As all four wheels sit at different heights, as the driveway slopes both left to right & front to back. )
This was the scene after one "collapse" and that was just the weight of the rolling chassis.
In summary - If I could, I would, but I can't, so I won't.

Gary - I should have done something like you have suggest right from the start, but, unfortunately, I didn't.
So these days it is a much better idea if I simply keep straight edges and measuring devices well away from the car.

While digging out the photos above, I came across "Vanessa" again.
The key point for me to remember is that
Andy is enjoying his car, not worrying about his front wheel arch.
Hopefully it will be a bit drier tomorrow night and I can make a bit more progress.
Until then, take care, Paul.
